Thanks, Ben! It was my first time in Central Park and I had such a great time photographing that fountain from various viewpoints. This was definitely my favorite!
Thanks, Laura, but total luck! Wish I could take creative credit, but I honestly was focused on the center of the frame and hadn’t even noticed the other groupings! Imagine my surprise when I saw everything I had captured 🙂
Really interesting photo, I love the silhouette at the front then the really ornate fountain in the background. I really like the effect from the fast shutter speed on the water. On first glance I wouldn’t have noticed all the cameras but yes it must have been a popular spot. Dynamic photo Stacy.
Thanks, Karen! I was really playing with shutter speed that morning because of the water (so thanks for by noticing!) the silhouette was a happy by-product. As for the cameras, had no idea I had captured those – it was a pleasant surprise 🙂

Look at all those cameras. I don’t think I would notice it without you mentioning. 🙂

Ha! I didn’t notice them, either, Loré, until I got the photo on my big monitor! Happy coincidence 🙂

Thanks, Ritva! The strong silhouettes and the lighter background just screamed monochrome to me – I like it so much better than the color shot 🙂
